The Institute for Progressive Medicine (IPM), a medical clinic that focuses on safe, natural and alternative therapies in combination with traditional medical treatments, announced today the clinic's Preconception Care Program. Preconception health care is for both parents and improves the likelihood of a healthy conception, pregnancy and birth for those who are having trouble conceiving or for parent's-to-be who are looking for ways to have healthier babies. The program also includes alternative methods for pain relief.
Lead by Dr. Julie Kahn, IPM's Preconception Care includes acupuncture, detoxification, herbal medicine, cycle charting, dietary and lifestyle plans and a program of natural medicines to combat the adverse affects of 20th Century lifestyle and living conditions. Environmental pollution, poor nutrient levels in soils and foods, toxic farming methods, chemical radiation and heavy metal exposure, weight problems, overuse of sugar, caffeine, alcohol and the stress of modern living all contribute to poorer general health, and consequently, poorer reproductive health. IPM's program improves sperm count and quality in addition to optimizing egg development and is effective against infertility by itself, or as a supplement to fertility treatments under a reproductive endocrinologist.
"The program is great to use in conjunction with a fertility MD," said Dr. Julie M. Kahn, N.D., L.Ac, expert in Naturopathic medicine and a licensed acupuncturist. "If a patient is spending thousands of dollars on fertility enhancing treatments, IPM's Preconception Care program adds extra insurance. It is also good for people who just want to have a healthy experience, or who are not ready to go the traditional medical route of drugs or surgical procedures to increase fertility."
Research on this type of program has shown a decreased miscarriage rate, no low birth-weight babies, little to no ear infections, and children have less allergies. In addition, the program has proven to decrease labor pains, assist in lowering high blood pressure, decrease nausea, anemia, heartburn and headaches during pregnancy.
"Preconception Care has proven to be very effective in improving the chances of fertility in women," added Kahn. "There has been an overwhelming success rate with unexplained infertility that comes from practicing Preconception Care."
Preconception Care at IPM offers support for couples with fertility problems and also for couples who simply want their child to have the healthiest start to life. It is not only used to achieve a conception, but also to improve the chances for a very natural and healthy pregnancy, birth and baby.
About Preconception Care
The program is modeled after the work done by the Natural Fertility Management program. Natural Fertility Management (NFM) program was first pioneered in Australia in 1975 by Francesca Naish, a naturopath who has dedicated her career to developing a comprehensive and holistic approach to fertility.
